Sorry but you are confusing me by talking about "signing on the residents list." If not the padron then I have no idea what you mean. You refer to the residencia separately, so I assume you do not mean it is that, therefore, I should be grateful if you would tell me what you are referring to (no rolling eyes needed unless you find it necessary).

For the sake of clarity:

The residencia is still the same as it was. The only thing which changed is that it is now a Certificate (which is not proof of ID nor nationality) instead of a photo card which was a legal ID but which ceased to be issued, on applications made as from 2.4.07.

So why do you think that? His post has many normal questions about setting up an office in Spain:confused:

Re: Some help please :-)
 

no it's not the same

not all Brits (can't speak for other nationalities) HAD TO get Residencia if living here

but we DO all have to sign for Certificado de registro como ciudadano de la Unión (Certificate of registration as a citizen of the Union) if living here

Lynnxa, please see my private email.

Re: Some help please :-)
 

I have replied to your PM

you are wrong in saying that it is the same

it isn't even called residencia now - it's called what I said in my last post

& WE (my family) definitely didn't HAVE to have it until the law changed in 2007

only non EU citizens now have to apply for residencia

EU citizens don't have to apply for anything - simply register that we live here - which is why I refer to it as 'signing the residents list' because that is effectively what we are doing - signing a register & getting a bit of paper proving that we have done so - & we all HAVE to do it if we live here

Re: Some help please :-)
 

Have you read his previous posts?????? I was curious about the need for carpets in an office (or anywhere else??) which seems a bit strange dont you think??

I'm not sure whats you are talking about, all I do know is that Lynnxa has been living in Spain for many years, totally immersed in her town and culture, totally fluent and working! If she were to tell me that the sky was tartan here, then its tartan!! lol ;)

Re: Some help please :-)
 

I don't wish this to become a public discussion. I have sent you a private reply.

Re: Some help please :-)
 

Sorry Jo, It was to avoid a disagreement in public that I choose to contact Lynn by private email, so that we can resolve our different understandings and thus not confuse people. I have done so again.

Re: Some help please :-)
 

This is a public forum and I for one would be grateful if you would not send me any more private messages.

Re: Some help please :-)
 

If you tell me its blue, then its blue LOLOLOL It wasnt this morning here, it was grey - its brightened up beautifully now tho

Re: Some help please :-)
 

that's lynnxa btw


public disagreement is fine if it gets it resolved

the term 'residencia' is confusing - simply because the 'new' system is different & has a different purpose & name

Re: Some help please :-)
 

that's what forums are for:D

Re: Some help please :-)
 

As we are both trying to help and not confuse people, I have again sent you a private email. I therefore have no further public comment.
